Prince Charles-an exemplar.
On occasion pictures appear of Prince Charles kilted, they are well worth looking at for they well illustrate how the kilt should be worn.
I appreciate that the tweed jackets and waistcoats might be a bit warm for the Americas: but his example is well worth following.

I'll have to agree, he does wear the kilt well.

Well, I'd guess that he can afford a pretty good tailor…

Prince Charles always looks great, very stylish and apparently is very comfortable in the kilt. He looks much better in the kilt than he looks in a business suit with P***s .
He must be the most high profile kilt wearer in the world.

It may be cooler there in high summer than where I am, but we're certainly no stranger to cold weather. I'd love a jacket and vest outfit like I've seen Prince Charles sport, for a number of reasons, not the least of which that it looks sharp.
Cheers,
Nick

I have been fortunate (?) enough to see HRH dressed in the kilt both semi-formally (tweed jacket, waistcoat & watchchain) and casually (old sweater over open-necked shirt - but NEVER with rolled/folded/scrunched down hose and boots!).
He is really relaxed in the latter and is obviously comfortable, but in the tweeds (often with striped shirt and tie more appropriate for wear with a trousered business suit) he seems to be aware that he is wearing a costume or a uniform - whenever I have seen him thus dressed, he's somewhat ill at ease and I suspect he knows his valet has slightly over-dressed him. He knows too that he has to wear what he is expected to wear in public - he actually has little 'say' in what is laid out for him each morning.
I wish I still had access to his personal staff so that I could question them on this.

Oh come now! We all know that Prince Charles has a direct line to Hamish!! After all he is the greatest authority of kilt fashion! How else can the Prince look so dashing??
